Abstract:Objective:To investigate the current status of rabies exposure prevention and treatment clinics in a certain city and to provide a basis for standardizing such clinics citywide.Methods:On-site inspections of clinic facilities and interviews with medical staff were conducted to assess clinic conditions.Data were entered using EpiData and analyzed with SPSS 22.0.Results:The average number of rabies clinics per 100,000 population across 10 counties(districts/cities)was 1.10.Among the 60 clinics,28(46.7%)operated 24 hours,at least one 24-hour clinic in each county.The average number of medical staff per clinic was approximately 11.All 60 clinics(100.0%)could manage pre-exposure prophylaxis,Category I,and Category Ⅱ exposures;48(80.0%)could handle non-surgical category Ⅲ exposures;and 10(16.7%)had the capacity to manage surgical-level exposures.Conclusions:The establishment and management of rabies exposure prevention and treatment clinics in the city still lack standardization.It is recommended to strengthen the standardized construction of such clinics citywide.
